Endlessly influential, each stage of the Art Deco movement is meticulously chronicled in this grand visual history by art consultant and writer Alastair Duncan.

 

This grand opus assembles the people and the pieces at the heart of the Art Deco movement at each stage of its enduring appeal.

The Art Deco Style

is richly illustrated with the work of legendary designers and decorators Eileen Gray, Paul Iribe, Antoine Bourdelle, Armand-Albert Rateau and Jean Dunand, among others.

 

 

Ever since its early 20th-century origins, Art Deco has fascinated and amused socialites, collectors and designers. Referred to at the time as

moderne

, the style largely took shape around a clientele of French fashion industry luminaries and wealthy international collectors. Art historians christened it during a second wave in the 60s, while a third generation of afficionados entered the auction houses of the 80s and 90s, ready to invest in the most exquisite examples. Curated by art consultant and author Alastair Duncan, this detailed historical account is the gold-standard visual guide to the decorative arts.
